in reply to use fields; # damnit

My way of getting error messages when using the wrong property name is by using only the accessor methods. These are made lvalues, so they can be assigned to.

use Attribute::Property;

package Dog;
sub new : New;
sub intelligence : Property { /^\d+\z/ }

package main;
my $dog = Dog->new(intelligence => 15);
$dog->intelligence++;

my $dog = Dog->new(inteligence => 15);  # error
$dog->inteligence++;                    # error

It saves a lot of typing (pun intended) too.
